If
you’ve had the time to download the latest Java 7 JDK update (7u40),
you may have noticed that there is a new addition to the tools in the
bin folder: Java Mission Control!

Java Mission Control is a
production time tools suite that has its roots in the JRockit JVM
tooling. This is the Mission Control team’s first public release in a
couple of years, so we’re obviously quite excited!

That said, the
5.2.0 version number is really a bit misleading – for most purposes and
intent this is really a 1.0.0 release. Please have some patience as we
bring Mission Control fully to par with what JRockit offered. Meanwhile I
hope you find it as useful as I do!
